Procrastination is not inherently evil. There may be benefits to procrastination. Before ending procrastination for good, make sure you understand why you are delaying in the first place.

Why do we procrastinate?

No commitment. You realize after waiting a period of time that you aren’t fully committed to the goal. Better to know before you spend hours and hours on it, then abandon it.

Bad idea. It may be that you realize it’s a bad idea or that there is another way to accomplish something.

Too many goals. Maybe you put it aside in favor of something else or you have competing priorities.

Laziness. You look at your last week and realize that you have no excuse. You are just lazy. A sloth.

Exhaustion. You are physically and mentally spent doing other things, and you don’t start because your tank is running on empty.

Fear of failure. By not starting, you don’t finish and therefore reduce your risk of failure. After all, if you finish, everyone will see the end result and judge it. Rather than risk that, you never begin.
